Date went well, very enjoyable evening. Great conversation and excellent food.

Found out that my W had told my DD not to tell me that she went with OM on a "family" outing on Saturday evening. W told me that she was going to spend it with her family, but ended up going out with OM (with DD), on a ferry in Sydney Harbour, to the beach. DD is so honest, that she told me the truth, and said "Mummy told me not to tell you but I don't want to lie, but please don't get me in trouble".

If my heart hadn't have taken a pounding already.

I will not bring it up, and gave DD my word. I don't understand why they still think they are doing the right thing and continue to lie. And what is the purpose of having our children involved. What if the R sours, and W ends up with someone else, what sort of message does it send to a 7 y/o?

Anyway, I just don't think this R is going to end. I get a feeling that this is going long term, and they are so happy together, and W can't get enough of him. He is only 27, and wants to take on the responsibilities of a 36 y/o woman with a 7 y/o child. He lives with his brothers in a shared house in suburbia, has an average job, crap car and not much to look at, I can't understand it. W did tell me that he was there for her and told her the things she wanted to hear.............

I just don't know anymore. Why do they have to destroy everything before they come to thier senses?
